A company records data in Microsoft SharePoint Online. The company is creating a mobile app by using Microsoft Power Platform only. The company requires the app to connect directly to SharePoint Onlin

Power Automate automates workflows and business processes but is not used to build user-facing mobile apps for data collection.

Power Pages is used to build external-facing websites and portals, not mobile apps, and requires additional configuration to connect to SharePoint.

Canvas apps are specifically designed to connect directly to a wide range of data sources including SharePoint Online, allowing makers to build fully customized mobile and tablet experiences without code. The SharePoint connector in canvas apps enables real-time read and write operations against SharePoint lists and libraries. Canvas apps are optimized for touch-based mobile layouts and can be published to iOS and Android via the Power Apps mobile app.

Model-driven apps are data-model-centric and run on Dataverse, not SharePoint Online, so they cannot connect directly to SharePoint as a primary data source.
